Antibiotics are antimicrobial compounds used in the treatment and prevention of bacterial infection. They can either kill or they can inhibit the growth of bacteria. Several antibiotics are also effective against fungi and protozoans. Some are toxic to humans and animals, even when given in therapeutic dosages. Antibacterial antibiotics are commonly classified based on their mechanism of action, chemical structure, or spectrum of activity. Most antibiotics target bacterial metabolic functions or growth processes. Those antibiotics that interfere with the function of essential bacterial enzymes, or that target the bacterial cell wall or the cell membrane, are usually bactericidal. Those that target protein synthesis are usually bacteriostatic. Further categorizations can be made based on target specificity. Use of antibiotics is essential in retaining the purity of particular selection factors in populations of cells. In recent years antibiotics have been found to be valuable in a wide range of life science disciplines. Fermentek has had particular success in manufacturing antibiotics using fermentation processes.

Applications

Lutein was found to be present in a concentrated area of the macula, a small area of the retina responsible for central vision. The hypothesis for the natural concentration is that lutein helps protect from oxidative stress and high-energy light. Several studies show that an increase in macula pigmentation decreases the risk for eye diseases such as age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD).

Description

Bafilomycin B1 is a specific inhibitor of vacuolar type H+-ATPase (V-ATPase) in animal cells, plant cells and microorganisms.

Bafilomycin B1  can prevent the re-acidification of synaptic vesicles once they have undergone exocytosis.

It displays Antibacterial, Antifungal, Antineoplastic, Immunosuppressive properties.

Bafilomycin B1 shares the same mode of action and activity as its more accessible Bafilomycin A1 analogue. Bafilomycin B1 is broadly active against bacteria, fungi, insects, nematodes and protozoans. Bafilomycin B1 has attracted interest as a potential antiosteoporotic agent in treating bone lytic diseases.

Bafilomycins have been considered as possible therapeutic agents in the treatment of gastritis.

Applications

Bafilomycins specificly  inhibit  vacuolar type H+-ATPase (V-ATPase) in animal cells, plant cells and microorganisms. Bafilomycin A1 is useful in distinguishing among different types of ATPases. Bafilomycin A1 can prevent the re-acidification of synaptic vesicles once they have undergone exocytosis. Bafilomycin A1 and B1 significantly attenuate cerebellar granule neuron death resulting from agents that disrupt lysosome. As vacuolar ATPase inhibitors bafilomycins overcome Bcl-​xL-​mediated chemoresistance through restoration of a caspase-​independent apoptotic pathway.

Description

A polyether potassium ionophore. Salinomycin is potent antimicrobial, it acts against Gram-positive bacteria, among which there are some hard to treat strains, for example  methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus epidermidis, and Mycobacterium tuberculosis. 

As an anticancer candidate drug, Salinomycin has been shown by Piyush Gupta et al. of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the Broad Institute to kill breast cancer stem cells in mice at least 100 times more effectively than the anti-cancer drug paclitaxel. The study screened 16,000 different chemical compounds and found that only a small subset, including salinomycin and etoposide, targeted cancer stem cells responsible for metastasis and relapse.

RTECS#

Chemical name
Meleagrin
Description

Meleagrin, a fungal alcaloide antibiotic, posesses antitumor and antibiotic activity. Meleagrin has been identified as an inhibitor of the bacterial enoyl-acyl carrier protein reductase.

Meleagrin, CAS 71751-77-4, the fungal alcaloide, should not be confused with the low molecular weight peptide cas 121272-63-7, which is isolated from turkey also called meleagrin.
